The navigation tree is used by the System Integrator (SI) to navigate across all the systems that are connected to the Mediators in a specific network. It provides a hierarchical tree structure, Search field, a Display tab, a Properties tab, and a Global Setpoints tab. It is possible to view system graphics and the real-time value of all the points in a specific Mediator. The value of editable points may be set directly from the Enterprise Navigation portal.

The hierarchical tree enables you to search through a particular Mediator installed on a specific network or entities of the Mediator by traversing the navigation tree and expanding the entities. The Search field enables you to find and display the desired entities from the navigation tree, instead of traversing the entire tree and expanding the entities. The Display tab is used to present a graphical view that summarizes key system data. The Properties tab lists all points and its attributes associated with a particular device. The Global Setpoints tab enables you to set point control for changing system set points across mediators installed on a global enterprise network.

General

Q) Can the downstream Mediators be scheduled centrally from the Mediator Manager?
A) Yes. The schedules get populated on the Mediator Manager automatically, as and when the downstream Mediators are added on the Mediator Manager. These schedules can be modified from the Mediator Manager.

7) Which phase of EnergyWise does the Mediator 3.1.1 support?
We support both phases EW1 ( SNMP support ) and EW2 (SNMP + API support).

8) What is the licensing schema for the Mediator Manager?
In lieu of licensing at the Mediator Manager level, you should purchase the Global Management capability at the Mediator level, that is, Cisco Network Building 4800- Global Management (NBM4800-MGMT).

9) What are the protocols used for communication between the Mediator and the Mediator Manager?
The following protocols are used:
- SRNA (TCP) port number:5150
- HTTP/S port number:80/443

10) What are the APIs supported from the Mediator Manager?
The same APIs that are available in the Mediator are applicable for the Mediator Manager.

11) How can we edit the password requirements on the Security Manager
Password requirements can be set using configTOOL. Navigate to the following path to modify:

/services/network/http(s)_server path.

12) Will the Systems page of the Mediator 3.1.1 and Mediator Manager 1.1.1 reflect the Global Management feature after the licence is uploaded?

No. Currently we do not support the Global Management feature. This will be available in future releases.
